Crazy Saturday!

I thought the song went "Saturday, is a special day". Nope...I found out yesterday it actually goes like this...
"Saturday, is a CRAZY DAY"!!

It started off peacefully, then ERRR ERRR EERRRR....There goes the alarm. An alarm on Saturday, you say??
I know!!! But, they made me!!!
I started out at "Soup"-er Saturday for my ward. It actually was very fun. They had a lot of great activities to do. Here is a picture of what I accomplished while there.
















Can you believe I made that? I slaved for hours...letter by letter. Ok, Actually, lucky for me, the whole saying came on one piece of paper and I adhered it all at the same time. Except for the corners. I did those, one at a time. Not bad, eh? I love the saying on it. It's great! I'm not exactly sure where I can put it yet, since it's pretty big, but I'll find somewhere.
Next, I went to a wedding of a friend from work. You couldn't have asked for a better, more beautiful day! Blue sky, very sunny, and warm. You couldn't get a better day in November if you'd planned it yourself.

She looked beautiful!


Her dress was very pretty, and I especially loved the lacing in the back.

Her daughter was the flower girl...

Her Brother "gave her away" (walked her down the isle in this case).

And this guy is the happy groom (still checking out his ring in total excitement that he got such a great girl! haha)
You couldn't have wiped the smile off of his face if you wanted too.


She was so excited to see everyone.

Especially her friends from the office of course...





They don't always have branches coming out of their heads. They just do that on very special occasions, such as this beautiful wedding.


My apologies to those I did not get on film...She was still excited to see them as well.
I was very happy to be a part of this beautiful day with her and her friends and family. It was great!
And last, but certainly not least! I helped throw a Baby Shower for my good friend Marlyse.
It turned out very fun. There was a good turnout of family and friends, great bridal showere games, and VERY good food!! :)
We played a game where you have a list of animals and you have to guess what they're babies names are! And then we did a Candybar game where you name something that has to do with the pregnancy, and you have a bunch of candybars. You choose a candybar that you think goes along with that part of the pregnancy experience...
For example...
Umbilical Chord .... Twizzlers
Postpartum Stomach... Jelly Bellys! (haha that was my favorite)
Hospital Bills...$100 Grand
Well, you get the idea. It was actually VERY funny listening to everyone trying to decide which candybar/candy went with which item.
We also ate, and opened gifts as well. It was a lot of fun.
(I'll have to post pictures later for this one...I keep getting errors)

The Happiest Place on Earth!

Disneyland!!


This week I spent with part of my family in DISNEYLAND!!! It was soo much fun to get away and enjoy a week with them.

As you can see, they had it all decorated for Halloween, which was fun. We drove down on Monday and spent Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday in Disneyland and California Adventure Land. I think we got to everything we wanted too, and some 3-4 times!! My top 4 rides?? Soarin' Over California, Tower of Terror, Space Mountain, and California Screamer!! It's a Screamer all right.








The kids all had their own maps to
the parks.




Some of them even read them and discussed with their fellow cousins, where they wanted to spend their time.

There wasn't a lot of disagreement! But there were a few tired kids.

But over all just a lot of laughs, smiles, and giggles!! From adults and kids!


OH YEA!! And Screams!


Then on Friday, we spent the day at Sea World. We saw some shows...


Dolphin Show

Seals and Otters Show


And of Course... We saw the Shamu show!





We also made a few new friends!


It was a great trip and we all had a really good time! We're going to have to go back again SOON!!
